The X99 Carbon Extreme SLI has the range topping 8-core Intel Core i7 5960X which is water-cooled and over clocked to 4.2GHz, however it has a pair of much more powerful 12GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan X graphics cards running together in SLI for even greater performance. The default spec also includes 16GB of 2800MHz Corsair Vengeance DDR4, an Asus X99-A motherboard, a 250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD and a 2TB hard disk.

This would work wonders for many reasons and no matter what you are using it for, but it would work especially well when it comes to creating sound for games and using it in an audio workstation. One of which is that it would render and export the music much quicker compared to your standard computers, which will save much more time when it comes to making the music in the audio workstation.

The iMac would be a great computer to use at a audio workstation, its not the best computer out there, especially when compared to the high budget PC but it will get the job done, here is a list of some of the specs.

4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 2.7GHz

8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM

500GB Serial ATA Drive

Intel HD Graphics 5000

The main point is that the iMac will get the job done and another good reason to get an iMac is not just the low budget prices but also the fact that it can run Logic Pro which is a very popular and good software to use and design your very own music as well as when it comes to editing the sounds/music.

This is a Panasonic Black smart 4k Blu Ray recorder which includes 1TB Hard disk storage this will be great when it comes to storing my finished music and sounds. It also comes with great wifi and two freeview HD tuners, which might come in handy at some point in time.

This is a great recorder mainly because it works through a usb cable which will minimize the amount of wires within the entire work station it also goes up to 1080p which is great for only £41 and will save me a lot of money compared to the high end blu ray recorder which are currently available.

At the price of a small house, the Acapella Poseidon are not for the faint-hearted or casual listener, and only for the true audiophile, who values sonic perfection above all else, and for whom there can be no compromises. Few speakers can truly invoke the power of a great orchestra – many can try, some can even come close. The Poseidon is a speaker that can transmit without limitation, the huge dynamics required to emulate an orchestra, yet with the pose and delicacy required to draw out every last molecule of detail and resolution.

The Poseidon are capable of authentic spatial representation on a level unrivalled by any other speaker. Depth, width and height of sound are portrayed tangibly in a seemingly holographic soundscape, surrounding the listener with audio, yet also presenting the image of real instrumentation, situated in its own space.

These speaker would work great in the audio workstation and they’re only £10 which is very cheap and at least it does its one and only job, it’ll be great to test out the sounds a music that will be made within the studio as I will be playing them over and over again repeatedly many times for many days, and if it break we can just replace because its so cheap which will help us save a lot of money and that will be very important when it comes to making an audio workstation.

Logic Pro has an enormous collection of plug-ins and sounds to help you flesh out your ideas. Put a chord through the Arpeggiator and experiment with new sounds.

This will be great for my audio workstation as my low budget also consists of a MAC and logic pro comes free with a mac therefore I will be able to save a lot of money when it comes to the software which will enable me to put more money into other parts of the workstation.

This is a very advanced keyboard which you can see from the picture, it even has a screen on it which is not very common when it come to keyboard design, I chose this keyboard mainly because of how advanced it is, I also chose it partly because of the looks of the keyboard, I like the lights and the screen, at the end of the day the keyboard doesn’t really make a difference when it comes to creating music in a audio workstation.

This is a great keyboard especially for how cheap it is which is great when it comes to creating a low budget audio station, its only £6 but at the end of the day it’s a keyboard and it will do the job and do what a keyboard is supposed to do, the keyboard doesn’t look the best and may not work the best but as long as it does the job it’ll be fine and will help me make great sounds and music within the low budget audio workstation.
